China’s most senior general has called for joint efforts by military and civilian officials to combat corruption within the People’s Liberation Army, specifically targeting the development of major weapons systems.
General Zhang Shengmin, vice-chairman of the Central Military Commission (CMC) and a former PLA anti-corruption chief, made the remarks in a supplementary reader for the resolution adopted at the Communist Party’s latest plenum.
Published earlier this month, the collection features contributions from dozens of senior officials across various policy areas, offering explanations of the resolution to “deepen party self-governance” adopted at the Central Committee’s fifth plenum held last month.
